Energy and Utilities (E&U)

Brochure

What keeps you up at night?

Whether you are an IT professional or a business leader, understanding the opportunities available with the Cloud for hosting, software and support lead to tremendous value when applied to your organization’s CIS. Nevertheless, utilities often adopt the wait and watch approach to ascertain whether a new technology or product has reached an acceptable level of maturity before considering it. Utilities spend an average 2.8% of their revenue on IT and an annual average of $18K of IT support per employee. This expenditure is vested in mission critical hardware that the business relies on for high-availability, but no matter how great the investment, hardware can and does fail. With the optimum CAPEX/OPEX model it’s actually a win-win scenario for both the Utility and the Utility Commission.
